Bandcamp Friday, so, why not?

 

For others who may be interested in the album, you might want to add artist's name in text for album covers that don't include it, i.e. Gillian Welch & David Rawlings.

You are right, I'm being sloppy, sorry.

Very short, very sweet EP by the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.

Yes, that is only one reason to disqualify the Currentzis.  OTOH, there are many excellent recordings of this from the reference (if that's possible) Mavrinsky to the massive Honeck (in multichannel DSD256).  

A late comment,
 

Honeck’s Beethoven 7th symphony with Pittsburg Symphony Orchestra is even more massive in NativeDSD’s upsampled 512 stereo version. Recently Tom Caulfield remastered it using HQPlayer Pro’s ASDM7EC filters and it’s quite something else when played through a NOS system.

 

And another thumbs up for Berliner’s debut recording Tchaikovsky 6th symphony for their own label. One of my test recordings for soundstage. Curious to try their Beethoven’s 7th.

It may work as a test recording as well. My comment was about something else.

Deliciously funny!

Streaming from Qobuz, just released. I already liked the original Ella in Berlin with Oscar Peterson, this is also very enjoyable Ella, even if the different rhythm section here doesn’t live up fully to the Peterson trio.

Mal Waldron/ Travellin' in Soul-Time

This album arose from a 1995 tour memorializing the 50th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The combination of Jeanne Lee's voice with Mal Waldron's piano is deeply moving.

CD layer AIFF. Looking forward to the follow up in 2021.

The combination of Mozart and contemporary Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov does not immediately come to mind, nevertheless works quite well.

One More For The Road [24/48]

Curtis Stigers

Qobuz

 

 

Listened to this last night, its a good album, well recorded, and Curtis Stigers has a unique sound. Thanks for the recommendation.

An unusual and enjoyable recording of a mother and son duo playing jazz and classical pieces on violin and bass. I admit I wasn't optimistic based on the somewhat cheesy album cover, but was proved quite wrong; give it a shot! Streaming on Qobuz.

Didn't know she'd had a kid with Claudio. 😇

One my favorite musicians ever and the bass player of great Paco de Lucia, Alain Perez joined by Omara Portuondo for this piece from the album ADN. It is an excellent album in every way. Together with this piece "Shorcito" and "Con Corbata y Sin Cabeza" are especially the ones I cannot stop listening...

No need for an apology. It was an unintended omission that I am sure will not be repeated.

Great album!  I had forgotten how she used to sound.  Wow.  Thanks,

Been listening to this for a year.  It was in pre-release and then pulled back twice I believe.

Not really an album, but a track released for Record Store Day.

 

Everybody Here Hates You, Courtney Barnett

Flawless combination of impeccable soloist, outstanding conductor and celebrated orchestra. Healthy interpretation which lacks nothing.
